You seem to be getting confused by the different environments. Uboot is a
bootloader a bit like grub, and like grub it has a shell mode where you can
type commands. This is _not_ bash. Within the uboot shell we can change its
configuration using the 'setenv' command, and save the changes using
'saveenv'. It is this configuration that you need to change for booting from
SD, and the instructions on the wiki are correct.
If you try putting the settings in .bashrc instead of doing as the wiki page
suggests then uboot will not see them. This is why the kernel can't find init.
